I mean… if Theron had an authenticator, he shouldn’t be able to be hacked by a keylogger unless they blocked his login and then used the authenticator code to log on immediately. Minor plot hole. Wasn’t he telling Murd to two-factor authenticate when he got hacked?

Hi Russell, just to update you further it looks like the issue is something to do with the security certificate of the images on your site. If I open their URLs I get a ‘unsafe connection’ popup but then I can view the images if I click through it.

While admitting it would be an extra nail in the coffin, any competent investigative hacker would be able to trace where it came from, especially if Theron still has the original emails & files. All Theron has to do is call the cops (who should refer him to whatever division in their state handles computer crime), be a bit persistent and patient (which we KNOW he is), and Orhan’s days are numbered.

And yes, what Orhan’s done is a true, real crime.

The exact & total punishment will depend on what state he’s in (for example, in Connecticut, we’re talking “minimum 6 months jail & $1000 fine”), but by federal law, he’s committed a freakin’ felony. It doesn’t matter that this is an MMO & the victims aren’t part of the government — the Computer Fraud & Abuse Act gets interpreted really broadly in the courts, as the feds have a huge interest in slapping black-hat phreakers down HARD.
